00:25 - KarlabosMost videos are all about just adding random images to the song though, so...

00:22 - KarlabosSome videos aren't bad. But an ok video is not a good video. A good video would be something that adds to the song. In a way after you've seen it you can't help but to feel only listening to the song isn't enough anymore

23:53 - ApothecaryI mean welcome to artists trying to be theatrical lol there's always going to be some degree of cheese in music videos, even if it's .0001% cheese

Original post

I know it's sooo not metal to be sensitive. It's sooo not cool to have a heart. Blablabla, yadda yadda. Let's all just pretend we aren't actually demons from the abyss for a moment and admit to this question if it applies to us. What song was it? Under what circumstance was it?

Don't think I've cried, but I do remember the first time I listened to 'Sailing into Eternity' by Black messiah. When that bassoon/trumpet struck the notes, my instinctive reaction was a fist in the air and that familiar, spectacular feelings of shivers all over your body you get when you listen to something awesome

----
God's disciples want you to die!
In the blazing inferno
Slewed on Satan's pitchfork
Burning for eternity
Death
I see it coming your way
by my hand... or by your fate
with no remorse.

I think A Question In Heaven by Iced Earth is the closest I've ever come to openly tearing up.
That end part is just so fucking beautiful and tragic, and the waterworks especially start around the lines "I know you can't forgive me, I know I'm on my own, I know that I've betrayed you, you know I walk alone..."
The vocalization in the background doesn't help, either.

It's a very good song especially covering the history of 'Simmons', it made up the whole environment of song very catchy and remorseful. Probably, my one of the favorite off Iced Earth.

Nope never, if it wouldn't be a metal song, not an extreme one for sure.

Weeping is not cry... I do believe music can move the ppl emotion. Songs like sound of snow, raindrops, no one remeber your name of shamrain made me drop but it actually evokes my wild hard live touch life attacking...when in high school forever and one of helloween very deep, wonder is there anyone still knows or listen to that old veteran band...

If we talk about crying, I came pretty close listening to 'Paradise Lost' by Symphony X for the first time, if I remember correctly. But no, I don't hink I have ever cried or wept the first time I listened to a song, at least not in metal. The only piece of music to achive that was probably 'To Zanarkand' by Nobuo Uematsu.

Let me set the scene. It is a windy, rainy night. Inside my library, the mood is somber. I am sitting and reflecting upon the deep matters of life, by dim candlelight. At this point I decide to place Opeth's Blackwater Park in my compact disc player for the first time, and commence listening. Each note tugs at my heart strings... Each beautiful plucked droplet of heavenly music cascades upon my very soul, I feel an immense wave of sheer emotion flush through me, filling my every orifice with melancholy, mystery, and pure, unadulterated passion. I wept uncontrollably as the waves of effervescent music washed over me, as my very being was filled with the essence of life itself. It would be hours before my weeping met an end; long after the conclusion of the album, I could not bring those mighty tears to stop flowing in light of the transformation that took that place that day... Opeth had made me ascend from human, to ultrahuman.
